Commentary
Here the word 'sin' is referred to the Prophet ﷺ, the mistake of the Prophet's is always in matters of obedience, it never happened for the fulfillment of desires, nor did they do so intentionally and willingly. However, they sometimes went beyond the fixed limits when obeying the truth; as there are distinctive scales and criteria between true and false, so they were held accountable even for the least unintentional slip, and Allāh ﷻ guided them.
